Monica Gaga is a British-born Black African queer host, improviser, facilitator, maker, and performer. With over 15 years of experience performing and hosting, and over 20 years of improvising, Monica brings bold energy, sharp wit, and radical joy to every stage she steps on.
A regular with the legendary ‘Comedy Store Players’, Monica is a cast member and producer of ‘HELL YEAH!’, a bold and brilliant queer improv collective; she plays with ‘Do The Right Scene’—hailed by Time Out as “theatre that thinks”; she is one half of the feminist comedy duo ‘Derek’s Mojo’; and is excited to have recently joined the cast of the five star reviewed show, ‘Murder She Didn’t Write’.
Trained at East 15 Acting School, Monica has performed professionally both nationally and internationally, bringing her unique voice to a wide audience.
Monica is currently based in London, UK.
